Geneva’s Endowment Program

Our Endowment invites members and friends of this congregation to practice faithful stewardship by strengthening the ministries of our congregation and the larger church in perpetuity. A gift to the Endowment Fund will bear fruit to the glory of Jesus Christ for many years to come.

Why Do We Need An endowment?

Our Endowment expands Christ’s mission and enhance our campus through gifts above and beyond the normal operating budget of the church.

How Can You Participate?

The best fit is one that is appropriate to your interests and circumstances.  Gifts of all sizes are important.  Consider cash, securities, real estate, or other assets.  These gifts may provide donor benefits such as income tax deductions, estate tax deductions, and avoidance of capital gains taxes.

When you make a planned gift to the Geneva Endowment Fund, you are planting seeds that can make a real difference in the life of the church and lives of people now and for years
to come.

We invite you to become a member of the Legacy Partnership, created to honor and recognize people who help to continue the ministry and mission of Geneva through a planned gift.

There are several ways to become a Legacy Partner:

• Direct gifts to the Endowment Fund

• Bequest and wills

• Gifts of life insurance

• Make The Endowment Program the recipient of your IRA

• Real estate and personal property

• Other (consult your financial advisor)
